Szechwan Palace - Lunch Tomorrow (1/30) -- Join Us!

I'm new to town and anxious to meet some local food nerds and get some regular outings going. I buzzed by Szechwan Palace (Chinese Cultural Center, near the airport) last week, it looks like the real deal and I'm long overdue for some good Sichuan, so a few of us are grabbing lunch there tomorrow, most likely at 1:00 (to be confirmed shortly).

Welcome to Phoenix! I wish I could join you - Sichuan is one of my favorite cuisines and haven't been to Szechuan Palace yet. Maybe next time. Be sure to report back!

PS - Really enjoy your blog and pictures (YumYum talks very highly of you) and now I'm especially missing Boston seafood favorites like J.Hook, Neptune Oyster and Peach Farm, all of which used to be in walking distance. Though I absolutely love the culinary scene (and friendly Chowhounds) out here and I'm sure you will to.

Ugh. I'm already trying to find a way to join one of my hiking clubs in the White Tanks tomorrow while simultaneously taking my daughter to the Great Arizona Puppet Theater. I can't think of a way to be three places at once, much less two.

By the way, the mods seem to frown upon using the board for event planning, so this thread may not last. In the past, there's been a sort of parallel Google group for this purpose. I left it a while back and don't know if it's still active. These days, I'd say the best way to handle something like this might be to announce it here but collect RSVPs via twtvite or a similar service.
